Hi, I am looking at a 2005 Toyota Prado 2.7L 3dr SWB(Petrol) Auto. Just wondering if these are reliable vehicles and any common historic faults it may have?

The 2.7L petrol powered Prado has a good reputation however it is a thirsty machine - you will be stopping to fill up with petrol on a regular basis. The diesel models are popular for the superior torque for towing and better fuel economy. Look for a vehicle that has a good traceable service history and low mileage.
